Louisiana State University (LSU) and Louisiana Tech University (LA Tech) propose to establish the Center for Innovations in Structural Integrity Assurance (CISIA). Structural integrity and reliable life prediction of infrastructure and mechanical components have relevance in every public and private sector, ranging from oil & gas to aerospace to construction to energy processing industries. In addition to fundamental research for establishing linkages between material properties, infrastructure performance, and structural integrity ?which is beyond the scope of most industrial R&D organizations of today? the academic and industrial members of CISIA will work in concert to produce engineers who are trained in state-of-the-art facilities to utilize modern methods of structural health monitoring and analysis. These engineers will join a highly-qualified and productive workforce that significantly enhances the global competitiveness of U.S. industries. The LA Tech site of CISIA focuses on structural integrity of structural systems, with emphasis on deteriorated material characterization/testing and innovative sensor development, to conduct research on pipe, structural member, and composite rehabilitation component performance, life-cycle assessment, non-destructive condition determination, and failure prediction. By integrating validated diagnostics, machine learning, and data-driven decision making, CISIA will be well-positioned to interpret and translate the links between structural material design, operational performance, structural repair, and their collective impact on reliability across all U.S. industrial sectors.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

路易斯安那州立大学 (LSU) 和路易斯安那理工大学 (LA Tech) 提议建立结构完整性保证创新中心 (CISIA)。基础设施和机械部件的结构完整性和可靠的寿命预测与每个公共和私营部门相关，从石油和天然气到航空航天，从建筑到能源加工行业。除了建立材料特性、基础设施性能和结构完整性之间联系的基础研究之外——这超出了当今大多数工业研发组织的范围？ CISIA 的学术和工业成员将共同努力，培养在最先进的设施中接受培训的工程师，以利用现代结构健康监测和分析方法。 这些工程师将加入一支高素质、高生产力的劳动力队伍，从而显着增强美国工业的全球竞争力。 CISIA 的洛杉矶技术中心专注于结构系统的结构完整性，重点关注劣化材料表征/测试和创新传感器开发，对管道、结构构件和复合材料修复部件性能、生命周期评估、无损检测进行研究条件确定和故障预测。通过整合经过验证的诊断、机器学习和数据驱动的决策，CISIA 将能够很好地解释和翻译结构材料设计、操作性能、结构修复之间的联系及其对美国所有工业部门可靠性的集体影响。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
